S. Bach: An Examination and Comparison Jeffry Blake Johnson While the four cantatas presented on Trinity Sunday during Bach’s Leipzig years ‒ BWV 194, 176, 165, and 129 ‒ were all intended for the same liturgical day, a significant diversity exists among the four compositions. This diversity results from the variety of source material on which the cantatas were based, including material composed during the Leipzig years as well as material re-worked from previous Bach cantatas. The diversity also results from the different librettos and librettists that were utilized for the cantatas. Other factors include the variety of the cantatas’ movement structures, performing forces, and the theological/philosophical themes that are central to each composition. This document is a study of the four cantatas, first examining the compositions in detail, then examining the compositions by their commonalities and their dissimilarities, with specific attention to the methods by which Bach presented the theological/philosophical messages in each cantata. An appendix of translations and scriptural allusions for each cantata movement is also included at the close of the document. The variety of perspectives employed in this document forms a unique examination of the four Trinity Sunday cantatas that has not previously been seen in Bach scholarship. ii Table of Contents List of

  • Introduction
    Copyright © Thomas Braatz, 20071 Introduction This paper proposes to trace the origin and rather quick demise of the Andreas Stübel Theory, a theory which purportedly attempted to designate a librettist who supplied Johann Sebastian Bach with texts and worked with him when the latter composed the greater portion of the 2nd ‘chorale-cantata’ cycle in Leipzig from 1724 to early 1725. It was Hans- Joachim Schulze who first proposed this theory in 1998 after which it encountered a mixed reception with Christoph Wolff lending it some support in his Bach biography2 and in his notes for the Koopman Bach-Cantata recording series3, but with Martin Geck4 viewing it rather less enthusiastically as a theory that resembled a ball thrown onto the roulette wheel and having the same chance of winning a jackpot. 1 This document may be freely copied and distributed providing that distribution is made in full and the author’s copyright notice is retained. 2 Christoph Wolff, Johann Sebastian Bach: The Learned Musician (Norton, 2000), (first published as a paperback in 2001), p. 278. 3 Christoph Wolff, ‘The Leipzig church cantatas: the chorale cantata cycle (II:1724-1725)’ in The Complete Cantatas volumes 10 and 11 as recorded by Ton Koopman and published by Erato Disques (Paris, France, 2001). 4 Martin Geck, Bach: Leben und Werk, (Hamburg, 2000), p. 400. 1 Andreas Stübel Andreas Stübel (also known as Stiefel = ‘boot’) was born as the son of an innkeeper in Dresden on December 15, 1653. In Dresden he first attended the Latin School located there. Then, in 1668, he attended the Prince’s School (“Fürstenschule”) in Meißen.

  • The Reformation: 500 Years © Cantata Bwv 79 J
    Central United Church of Christ presents the SOUTHSIDE PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA WITH SPECIAL GUEST Vox Nova THE REFORMATION: 500 YEARS © CANTATA BWV 79 J. S. Bach CANTATA BWV 80 J. S. Bach SYMPHONY NO. 5 in D minor Mendelssohn FEATURING Patrick Clark, Artistic Director and Conductor Christine Jarquio Nichols, Vocal Director JEFFERSON CITY, MISSOURI NOVEMBER 3, 2017, 7:00 pm The Reformation, the German Southside, and Central United Church of Christ When German immigrants began arriving in Jefferson City in the 1840s, Catholic families settled west of St. Peter Church, and Refor- mation Protestant families settled on the south side of Wear’s Creek, creating a neighborhood now called Munichburg. These Protestant immigrants bought land for a church in 1850 and organized and built Central Church in 1858. They formed a congregation open to all German-speaking Protestants, regardless of creed or confession. The congregation’s name in the first constitution (1858) was Evangelical Central Congregation. “Evangelical” refers to the Good News of the gospel. It was a “union” congregation open to all German Protestants. Three Protestant tradi- tions converged: Lutheran (from Luther), Reformed (from Zwingli and Calvin), and Evangelical. The Evangelical denomination was formed when the Prussian ruler united the Lutheran and Reformed churches on October 31, 1817, the 300th anniversary of the Reformation. Since Prussian immigrants dominated the young congregation, Central saw itself an Evangelical church, a united and uniting church for Protestants. It recognized several confessions and catechisms insofar as they agreed, and respected individual conscience where they differed. Shortly after the Civil War, Lutherans who recognized only the Augsburg Confes- sion and Luther’s catechism as the sole creed arising from the Reformation withdrew from the Evangelical Central congregation and joined many more Lutherans who had never participated in the union congregation.

  • What Handel Taught the Viennese About the Trombone
    291 What Handel Taught the Viennese about the Trombone David M. Guion Vienna became the musical capital of the world in the late eighteenth century, largely because its composers so successfully adapted and blended the best of the various national styles: German, Italian, French, and, yes, English. Handel’s oratorios were well known to the Viennese and very influential.1 His influence extended even to the way most of the greatest of them wrote trombone parts. It is well known that Viennese composers used the trombone extensively at a time when it was little used elsewhere in the world. While Fux, Caldara, and their contemporaries were using the trombone not only routinely to double the chorus in their liturgical music and sacred dramas, but also frequently as a solo instrument, composers elsewhere used it sparingly if at all. The trombone was virtually unknown in France. It had disappeared from German courts and was no longer automatically used by composers working in German towns. J.S. Bach used the trombone in only fifteen of his more than 200 extant cantatas. Trombonists were on the payroll of San Petronio in Bologna as late as 1729, apparently longer than in most major Italian churches, and in the town band (Concerto Palatino) until 1779. But they were available in England only between about 1738 and 1741. Handel called for them in Saul and Israel in Egypt. It is my contention that the influence of these two oratorios on Gluck and Haydn changed the way Viennese composers wrote trombone parts. Fux, Caldara, and the generations that followed used trombones only in church music and oratorios.

  • LUTHERAN Bach Cantata Sunday
    LUTHERAN ACADEMY & FESTIVAL Bach Cantata Sunday The Eighth Sunday after Pentecost | Sunday, 14 July 2013 Service of Holy Communion Bach Cantata Sunday + Eighth Sunday after Pentecost + 14 July 2013 — 10:30AM Lutheran Summer Music Academy and Festival Today’s Texts It is easy to miss the shocking nature of this morning's parable if we think that this story only teaches us to imitate the Samaritan. The parable says so much more about God, our relationship to God, and the lengths to which God will go to reach out to us. Through the image of the Samaritan, Jesus lifts up a surprising rescuer as an image of our God who relentlessly cares for those in need. Could it be that we are meant to identify not with the Samaritan or even the lawyer to whom Jesus speaks the parable, but rather with the man who is hopeless and left for dead? Could it be that Christ is the good Samaritan who embraces us with the tender compassion of God? Jesus is not just giving us a comfortable morality tale reminding us to be nice, helpful, generous people. Instead Jesus is proclaiming the good news of the kingdom. God's grace comes to us through the cross, and our baptism into Jesus' death and resurrection. God's grace comes to us even—and especially—when we are at our worst, left for dead, bleeding and dying in life's many ditches. Even when we cannot or will not cry out, mercy and grace come into our lives through Jesus. This powerful message of Christ's death and resurrection is reinforced in Bach’s Cantata #4, Christ lag in Todesbanden.

  • The Crucifixion: Stainer's Invention of the Anglican Passion
    The Crucifixion: Stainer’s Invention of the Anglican Passion and Its Subsequent Influence on Descendent Works by Maunder, Somervell, Wood, and Thiman Matthew Hoch Abstract The Anglican Passion is a largely forgotten genre that flourished in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Modeled distinctly after the Lutheran Passion— particularly in its use of congregational hymns that punctuate and comment upon the drama—Anglican Passions also owe much to the rise of hymnody and small parish music-making in England during the latter part of the nineteenth century. John Stainer’s The Crucifixion (1887) is a quintessential example of the genre and the Anglican Passion that is most often performed and recorded. This article traces the origins of the genre and explores lesser-known early twentieth-century Anglican Passions that are direct descendants of Stainer’s work. Four works in particular will be reviewed within this historical context: John Henry Maunder’s Olivet to Calvary (1904), Arthur Somervell’s The Passion of Christ (1914), Charles Wood’s The Passion of Our Lord according to St Mark (1920), and Eric Thiman’s The Last Supper (1930). Examining these works in a sequential order reveals a distinct evolution and decline of the genre over the course of these decades, with Wood’s masterpiece standing as the towering achievement of the Anglican Passion genre in the immediate aftermath of World War I. The article concludes with a call for reappraisal of these underperformed works and their potential use in modern liturgical worship. A Brief History of the Passion Genre from the sung in plainchant, and this practice continued Medieval Era to the Eighteenth Century through the late medieval and early Renaissance eras.

    VAIMULIKUD LOOSUNGID 2008 Valitud piiblisalmid igaks päevaks Eesti Evangeelne Vennastekogudus 2008. aasta loosung Jeesus Kristus ütleb: Mina elan ja ka teie peate elama. Jh 14:19 Saatesõna 278. väljaandele Kas uskuda või mitte seda, mida ütleb Jeesus? Usklik inimene häbeneb ja ta ei küsi selliselt. Aga ometi, kas oled sa oma hinges kindel, et kui Jeesus on surnuist üles tõusnud ja elab, siis elad ka sina? Me ei söanda endale esitada selliseid küsimusi ja eriti meeleldi ei mõtle oma tulevikule. Kuigi igal päeval elame otse surma piiril, sest liiga palju on surmaga lõppevaid autoõnnetusi, tulesurmasid ja muid hukkumisi. See on reaalsus, mille keskel siin asume. Igavene elu, mis jätkub peale surma on teoreetilisena tunduv. Kui mu isa rääkis matustel ülestõusmise elust, siis ma noore mehena, kes praktiseeris tema kõrval, ei jõudnud selle mõttega kaasa minna, et jõuda rõõmuni, millele isa osutas. Näeme surma silmade ees ja meile tundub, et selles pole midagi ilusat. Ei olegi ilusat. Aga surm ei ole kohutav, kui su pilk on igavikule suunatud. Mu isa kordas ikka ja jälle: Meie elu on taevas. Meie aga küsime, kuidas on võimalik teha olematuks surma reaalsust ja traagilisust? Meie armsad lahkuvad ja meie ei peaks nutma? Ega nutmine ole keelatud. Nutmine leevendab valu. Siiski ei võta see valu ära. - 3 - Valu saab võtta sinult üksi Jeesus. Sellepärast seabki Ta enese võrdsena meie kõrvale. Ka Tema läks läbi maise surma. Ta ei ütle, mina suren ja teie peate surema. Paned sa tähele, Tema ei vaata surmale, vaid elule. Ta ütleb, see mis minule osaks sai, saab osaks ka sinule. Tõepoolest me ei astu surmast mööda.

  • The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-Flat Major (BWV 243A)*
    The Sources of the Christmas Interpolations in J. S. Bach's Magnificat in E-flat Major (BWV 243a)* By Robert M. Cammarota Apart from changes in tonality and instrumentation, the two versions of J. S. Bach's Magnificat differ from each other mainly in the presence offour Christmas interpolations in the earlier E-flat major setting (BWV 243a).' These include newly composed settings of the first strophe of Luther's lied "Vom Himmel hoch, da komm ich her" (1539); the last four verses of "Freut euch und jubiliert," a celebrated lied whose origin is unknown; "Gloria in excelsis Deo" (Luke 2:14); and the last four verses and Alleluia of "Virga Jesse floruit," attributed to Paul Eber (1570).2 The custom of troping the Magnificat at vespers on major feasts, particu­ larly Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost, was cultivated in German-speaking lands of central and eastern Europe from the 14th through the 17th centu­ ries; it continued to be observed in Leipzig during the first quarter of the 18th century. The procedure involved the interpolation of hymns and popu­ lar songs (lieder) appropriate to the feast into a polyphonic or, later, a con­ certed setting of the Magnificat. The texts of these interpolations were in Latin, German, or macaronic Latin-German. Although the origin oftroping the Magnificat is unknown, the practice has been traced back to the mid-14th century. The earliest examples of Magnifi­ cat tropes occur in the Seckauer Cantional of 1345.' These include "Magnifi­ cat Pater ingenitus a quo sunt omnia" and "Magnificat Stella nova radiat. "4 Both are designated for the Feast of the Nativity.' The tropes to the Magnificat were known by different names during the 16th, 17th, and early 18th centuries.
